Unable to get Image Processor Pro to run on Laptop. Creative CC suite.

Hi, All,
now i been using the excellent plugin from Russel Brown on my work PC for as long as i can remember. I had to do some work from home on Windows 8.1 Laptop 64Bit.
However this strange issue as show as image below just unable to get past this point. Seems like something is stuck. I can close it only. left it for ages. I even tried to trace the system with Microsoft Systemmonitor with no luck.
I have re-installed the creative cc bridge now three times along with photoshop, cleaning out every reference to data settings etc..Still with same results.
Even from outside bridge just trying to run the script from Photoshop directly gives the same result.
Anything have any great suggestion what possibly could be reason. I got a ton of batch conversions i need to save PNGs otherwise i would just just the normal image process.
Thanks in advance.

Its Not Adobe Code and its not shipped with Photoshop. Photoshop versions also has bugs in ScriptUI which is used by scripts with a dialog. Image Processor Pro 2.3.1 has some bugs. Some files formats its saves may have problems.
Russell Brown works for Adobe but he has been pulled away from Photoshop. Xbytor is the programmer that wrote Image Processor Pro he does not work for Adobe and he is feed up with Adobe for not fixing bugs in Photoshop scripting. He stated he will support Image Processor Pro for some time.
Russell web site has this. The Open Source code is now available for many of my script and panels
Because of new projects and a changing demand for my time, it will be necessary for me to move on to new projects at Adobe. For this reason I will no longer be able to support, or update many of my scripts and panels. Never fear! – I am releasing the source code for many of my programs and if you are a programmer then you can use this code to modify and change my scripts to meet your needs. If you are not a programmer then I recommend working with anyone on the list of programmers that I have supplied below. However! Let me make it clear that his code is not to be sold. This is an open and free source to be used for the good of humankind and Adobe Photoshop users around the world

I do not have a Mac or a Windows 8 machine to test on. On my Windows 7 PC Image Processor Pro 2.3.1 and newer versions run on CS6, CC and CC 2014.. X is still working on it

I can't get Dr Browns Image Processor Pro to work from Bridge with Photoshop CC 2014

We use the wonderful DR Browns Image Processor Pro script a lot, but cannot get it to work from Bridge with PS CC 2014. When I select files in Bridge CC and then go to Tools> Dr Browns Services 2.3.1 > Image Processor Pro it just pops up an error message that says ReferenceError: photoshop is undefined.
The actual script works fine if I launch it from Photoshop CC 2014 - just not if I load it from Bridge CC.
I have unistalled it and re installed a few times, both manually and through the Extension Manager CC.
I am using a Win 7 64bit computer.
I assume there is some change in the scripting part that loads Photoshop from bridge but not sure. It worked fine in CC. Just not CC 2014.
I opened the Dr Browns Services .jsx file but don't see anything obvious. This is the section related to the Image Processor Pro part:
// This routine takes an array of files. If called by Photoshop,
// it will invoke Dr. Brown's Process 1-2-3 with the files. If called by
// any other app, it will send a BridgeTalk message to Photoshop
// to invoke this routine with the same arguments.
drbrownserv.process123 = function (files) {
// Bring Photoshop to the foreground.
BridgeTalk.bringToFront ("photoshop");
// Create a new BridgeTalk message for Photoshop to invoke
// Image Processor with the selected files
var btMessage = new BridgeTalk;
btMessage.target = "photoshop";
btMessage.body = "drbrownserv.process123 (" + files.toSource () + ");";
btMessage.send ();
} else {
photoshop.runActionCommand ('611736f0-9c46-11e0-aa82-0800200c9a66', files);
catch (error) {
if (error.number != 8007) // Don't report user cancelled errors.
drbrownserv.alert (error);

I copied that .jsx file to a new name "Xbytor Image Processor Pro.jsx" edit that file changed the string Dr Browns services to "Xbytor Image Processor Pro" then commented out all the code that added tools menu items but "Image Processor Pro" and I put that file into
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC\Adobe Bridge" even though Bridge CC is 64Bit seems to use theat location.
Bridge CC was updated by the creative clouds update and opens Photoshop CC 2014 now

Image Processor Pro won't run in PS6 using Window 7 OS.

Trying to run IPP on a Windows 7 OS in PS6. I select my images in bridge and run the script IPP. Photoshop pops up and a blank white screen appears and nothing else happens.

Scripting was an extra down for PS7 and the first version of Photoshop to have scripting support PS6 has no scripting support. The Image Processor Pro script uses newer scripting features like Plug-in support that was added in CS3 and I think Image Processor Pro needs newer then that like it may only works with CS5, CS6 and CC. I use it with CS6 and CC... I do not usr the installer I extract the zxp file and install manually. There are a couple of minor issues the X is working on Alpha Channels in PSD files and some TGA and BMP support... Adobe has pull Russell Brown off of Photoshop and X is feed up with Adobe.. Make sure you have the latest version of the script... I use Windows 7 Pro OS...

Getting Russell Brown's Image Processor Pro to work with an action

I have Photoshop CS6 with Russell Brown's Image Processor Pro installed.
I have the ongoing task of processing pics of different sizes and different width/height ratios.
I would like to get the following result using IP Pro (in collaboration with an action):
1. Downsize pic to 960 pixels wide (height doesn't matter, but needs to stay in ratio)
2. Watermark pic.
3. Save.
4. Creating a thumbnail of 320 x 213 pixels, without distorting ratio. This may mean downsizing to 320 wide with relative height, *then* cropping via Image-Canvas Size. Chopping a bit off is preferable to me than distorting the ratio.
5. Save the smaller version as 'Documentnamex' (i.e. adding an 'x' to the document name for the thumbnail.
I have 1-3 in an action and have used it for years.
But as for the task of a smaller thumbnail, kept in ratio but chopped and named with an x - I am stumped. I downloaded IP Pro for the task, but I can't get it to work.
If I save the original with IP Pro (at step 3), how do I then get it to make the thumbnail?
If I create the thumbnail in the action, *then* do 2 saves in IP Pro (thumbnail and 960 version), the bigger one will be pixelated (and no surprises there)
Summary: I want 2 watermarked versions:
1. 1234a.jpg: 960 pixels wide, height relative
2. 1234ax.jpg: thumnail, 320 wide x 213 high
Can anyone help? Am I asking too much of the software?

Image Processor Pro V3 error output (OSX)

Is it possible to put put the list of files-not-processed to a text file?
I am not sure if I ma reading the Image Processor Pro.log file correctly,
it appears to only contain a lit of files that were processed successfully.

If IPP is unable to process a file, there should be an exception written out to the log file. Open the log file and search for one of the files that wasn't processed. There should be an explanation of why it failed. Also, there is a new rev of IPP at:
ps-scripts - Browse /Image Processor Pro/v3_0 at SourceForge.net.
If you get stuck, just email me the log file from a bad run.

Minor modification to Dr Browns Image Processor Pro?

I came across Dr Browns fantastic script and I'm hoping there's a developer that might be able to help with a minor (?) revision to the code.
He has kindly released the source code on his website http://www.russellbrown.com/images/tips_downloads/OpenSource.zip
I need it to do two main things:
Save 1. run a renaming convention on the original images and retain the file type/ extension
Save 2. resize the images for web (incorporating an action called up from PS to convert to RGB). No problems here.
I know I can do this in a two step process with bridge to rename and then use the script (or indeed a droplet) to resize for web, but I wish to keep this as a one step process.
Image Processor Pro does both of these fine except for one thing:
I need an option in Save 1. to save files in the format they already are - rather than forcing all files to save into a particular format.
I get hundreds of images from various companies (I work as a designer for an arts organistion) and they are all in a variety of formats and I want to maintain the highest possible quality file we are provided.
Basically I want the option of using the naming convention section of the script without the file save as file type bit.
This assue this could be done by either skipping the File Type/ Quality section altogether (but keeping the save to subfolder), or by including "keep current extension" into the file type drop down.
Things that would also be great:
3. An option to delete/ replace originals in the process (as I will be deleting these anyway)
4. The script can be made into a drag and drop application that calls up bridge/ PS?
Any assistance on this would be great.
PS- I have posted this over on the Photoshop discussion page as well, as that is where I came across the scipt in the first place.

Thanks

Yup didn't realise you are on mac.
If you don't want to keep the originals with their original names (ie if you're just overwriting the originals) then why mot just batch rename in bridge first? If you run an action or script then you'll have to wait whilst each file is opened and saved, whereas you run a batch rename and it's a file system task - virtually instantaneous.
Then just image processor, or a batch action from bridge (I'd create the latter because the. You can reuse it without needing to check settings or destinations over and over)

Image Processor Pro and Picture Processor load eps files without rasterizing them

Hi. My name is Lucas. Im from Argentina, now living in Brazil. I have the problem that is in the title. Im new doing this stuff but reading a lot i discovered that both scripts open eps files and because they dont get reasterized, then saved files looks preety bad.
I know that there are some parameters to open eps, ex:
var epsOpenOptions = new EPSOpenOptions();
   epsOpenOptions.antiAlias = true;
   epsOpenOptions.mode = OpenDocumentMode.RGB;
   epsOpenOptions.resolution = 72;
   epsOpenOptions.constrainProportions = true;
I have to say that looking for a solution a found a script and modified to suit partially my needs. I said partially because i need the script to look folders and save output files with same structure. Here is the script that manage one folder at a time:
#target photoshop
// Asks user for input folder
var inputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder to process");
// Asks user for output folder
var OutputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder to save your Tiffs");
if ( inputFolder != null && OutputFolder != null ) {
   // Makes list of all files located in that folder
   var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles( "*.eps" );
   // Create a EPS option object [height & width are doc size]
   var epsOpenOptions = new EPSOpenOptions();
   epsOpenOptions.antiAlias = true;
   epsOpenOptions.mode = OpenDocumentMode.RGB;
   epsOpenOptions.resolution = 72;
   epsOpenOptions.constrainProportions = true;
   // Open each file in turn
   for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
      // open the file
      app.open( fileList[i], epsOpenOptions );
      var baseName = activeDocument.name.slice( 0,-4 );
      // put your code to 'save as' the file here
      var saveFile = new File ( OutputFolder + "/" + baseName + ".jpg" );
   SaveForWeb(saveFile,60); // set quality to suit
function SaveForWeb(saveFile,jpegQuality) {
var sfwOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
sfwOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG;
sfwOptions.includeProfile = false;
sfwOptions.interlaced = 0;
sfwOptions.optimized = true;
sfwOptions.quality = jpegQuality;
activeDocument.exportDocument(saveFile, ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, sfwOptions);
activeDocument.close( SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES );
So, if you know some way modify image processor pro or picture processor i will be very pleased.
Because i will only use the script to manage eps files and save them as jpg (save for web) i dont need an special button to activate that option. Keep it simple. Thanx!!

You can tweak ImageProcessorPro.jsx by make the following edit.
Search for code that looks like this:
ImageProcessor.prototype.openDocument = function(file) {
var self = this;
var settings = self.settings;
var mode = DialogModes.NO;
var ext = file.strf("%e").toLowerCase();
var isRaw = ImageProcessor.CAMERA_RAW_FILES.contains(ext);
if (isRaw) {
and insert this code right after it:
if (ext == "eps") {
    var epsOpenOptions = new EPSOpenOptions();
    epsOpenOptions.antiAlias = true;
    epsOpenOptions.mode = OpenDocumentMode.RGB;
    epsOpenOptions.resolution = 72;
    epsOpenOptions.constrainProportions = true;
    try {
      var doc = app.open(file, epsOpenOptions);
    } catch (e) {
      Error.runtimeError(9002, ZStrings.UnableToOpenErr);
    return doc;
I haven't tested this at all but it looks good from here.

Image Processor Pro v3.0.1 is released

Image Processor Pro v3.0.1 is released and can be found here:
ps-scripts - Browse /Image Processor Pro/v3_0_1 at SourceForge.net
Here are the changes:
---------------------------- v3.0.1 ----------------------------------
- Removed 'Cancel' button on startup progress window. It didn't work
and would require some gymnastic coding to implement usefully.
- Added 'BatchMode' flag for calling IPP script from other scripts.
See demo script RunIPP.jsx for more details.
- Fixed window title to reflect correct script version
- Tweaked text in log file for readability
- Changed behaviour of 'Selection from Bridge' to match behaviour in
Contact Sheet II. If Bridge is running and no files are currently
selected, all image files in the current folder in Bridge will be
processed. The number of files to be processed is now present in the UI.
- Added Progress Bar. This is enabled with the flag
ImageProcessorOptions.USE_PROGRESS_BAR. The default is true.
- Added the ImageProcessorOptions.PROCESS_UNSAVED_IMAGES flag to permit
processing unsaved images. The default is false. You must edit the
script to enable this functionality.
- Fixed JPG Format Progressive bug. The number of scans was not being
set. The variable FileSaveOptions.DefaultJPGScans can be modifed to
change it from the default value of 3.
- Fixed for situations where there are no Action Sets or no Actions
in the selected Action Set.

Much appreciated, xbytor2.

Image Processor Pro xml issue:

When I download the script Image Processor Pro.xml to my window 7 computer with CS6, the File Type reads "Safari Document" When I select my images in bridge and try to run IPP the only thing that happens is a blank white window opens and sometime PS will crash.
I just upgraded from XP with CS5 to Win7 with CS6. I had no problems running IPP in XP/CS5

Thank you very much, xbytor2.

ReferenceError: photoshop is undefined? Trying to use Dr. Brown Image Processor Pro

Hello!
I installed Dr. Brown Image Processor Pro.
I have Bridge and PS (CS6, CC and CC 2014) x64.
Had to do a manual install to each folder.
In Bridge I get the error
ReferenceError: photoshop is undefined? Trying to use Dr. Brown Image Processor Pro.
I tried both the CC and CS6 bridge same result.
I have about 100 1GB plus files I want to size down. and need Image processor.
Any Advice?
I tried Dr. Brown's JUST FIX IT, bit it just brought me to the script editor. I'm not a programmer.
Any advice will be appreciated.

I wonder if this PDF Processor script would work better for you:

Image Processor Pro 2.3.1 is crashing

It looks like Tom Ruark and Mike Shaw actually wrote the script. I have been using this script over many versions and always rely on it. Recently I started getting this message. I have gone into Extension Manager and deleted the script, rebooted then reinstalled the script but that didn't resolve the issue. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Dr. Brown's Image Processor Pro

I've been using Dr. Brown's Image Processor Pro for years now and have never had a problem until now. I just attempted to run the Image Processor pro script and received a "failed creating default FileType tab". Anyone run across this error? I've tried removing the script and reinstalling but the same issue. I even tried Dr. Brown's "Just Fix It" script. The only thing that has changed since I last used the script successfully is that I've added a 3rd monitor to my setup but I really wouldn't expect that to be a problem. Has anyone come across this error when using Dr. Brown's scripts?

I appreciate your suggestions but after some further investigating, turns out the problem was Photoshop itself. I went to test a batch action in photoshop and found that "batch" under automate was greyed out.
Oinapea, if you see that your "batch" option is greyed out as well, try deleting your actions palette file. Should be in the same folder JJMack listed above: C:\Users\(insert username)\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings
Delete Actions Palette.psp and reopen PS. Hopefully the "batch" option is now available and Dr. Brown's will run as it should.

Russell Brown " Image Processor Pro " does not work under CC

I just switched from Photoshop CS 6 to CC and use Russell Brown "Image Processor Pro". Unfortunately does not work that under CC. I also want to install the fix but we probably only applied to CS6.
Does anyone have a solution to the problem.
Here the German error message: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12684660/CC_IPP.jpg
Post translated with google Translater from the German.

I installed Image Processor Pro quite some time ago. I extracted the extension package and just copied the two files "Image Processor Pro.xml" and "Image Processor Pro.jsx" into Photoshop's versions Presets\Scripts. I normally install things I add to Photoshop into my own folders outside any Adobe installation folder. Image Processor Pro is an exception because I did not want to modify X's code. Image Processor Pro is coded in a way to find which version of Photoshop is being run from and looks for its default xml file in that version Presets\scripts\ folder.
The script may save your modficaions to its defalt xml file into you user ID application data areas. And you can save you own Image Processor Pro presets configurations.
I run Windows not Mac though.

Bridge to Photoshop Image Processor won't run

I'm using Photoshop CS3 Extended - V 10.0.1 and Bridge V 2.1.1.9
I'm trying to run some photos through Image Processor via Bridge. After selecting all of the photos, selecting Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor, Photoshop opens, but the Image Processor doesn't run.
I've tried processing other photos in other folders and it works fine. Then I tried processing the problematic folder on a different computer with no luck. There just seems to be an issue with this group of photos.
I check the information on the photos and they're not locked or anything. I'm not sure what else to do. Any ideas?

Try run the Image Processor directly from Photoshop menu File->Scripting. See if you can select the folder and run the processing.
What is the special with that folder? such as size, permission, special name or special file?

Unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1

I am unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1. Log message is as follows:
Attempting to load library 'xplog70.dll' into memory. This is an informational message only. No user action is required.
Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn\xplog70.dll'.
Error: 17750, Severity: 16, State: 0.
Could not load the DLL xplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: (null).

Hi JFriedley,
According to your error message, there might three reasons for this issue.
xplog70.dll is corrupt, you need to check if you have any SQL Server running on same file version and same production
edition. If xplog70.dll is corrupt, you can copy it from the new server where agent is running fine to your problematic server.
Native client not installed properly. If you try applying any latest Service Pack or Cumulative Update then check if the SQL Server Agent can start, if that also doesn’t solve issue then try to reinstalling SQL Server Native client from SQL Server setup
files.
There is a similar issue about error 17750, you can review the following article.
